    An ideal gas heat engine operates in Carnot cycle between\[227{}^\circ C\]and\[127{}^\circ C\]. It absorbs \[6\times {{10}^{4}}\]cal of heat at higher temperature. Amount of heat converted into work, is:

    A)  \[1.2\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]         

    B)  \[2.4\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    C)  \[6.0\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]   

    D)         \[4.8\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    E)  \[3.6\times {{10}^{4}}cal\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    As     \[\frac{{{Q}_{2}}}{{{Q}_{1}}}=\frac{{{T}_{2}}}{{{T}_{1}}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[\frac{{{Q}_{2}}}{6\times {{10}^{4}}}=\frac{127+273}{227+273}=\frac{400}{500}\] \[\therefore \] \[{{Q}_{2}}=\frac{4}{5}\times 6\times {{10}^{4}}=4.8\times {{10}^{4}}cal\] \[\therefore \] \[W={{Q}_{1}}-{{Q}_{2}}=6\times {{10}^{4}}-4.8\times {{10}^{4}}\]                 \[=1.2\times {{10}^{4}}\,cal\]
